Yes. But still, the Israelis wouldn't keep any single attention onto god. They were all worried about the land. It was their fault they left in the first place. The Palestinians would keep more company with god and prey to him more often. The Israelis, they did none of that...
I think the the Palestinians should have the land because the Israelis didn't take care of the land for a while and wasn't keeping covenant (company) with god. The Palestinians should keep the land because they would keep more company with god, unlike the Israelis. Also, even though the Israelis were back on the land, they wouldn't keep covenant with god. (Weren't paying much attention to him).
